A 4-cylinder engine with a nitrous-oxide system is built. After the MEP value is determined, the indicated horsepower is calculated to be 209 ihp at 5000 RPM. When placed on a dynamometer, the engines brake horsepower output is measured to be 168 bhp at the same engine speed. Find the mechanical efficiency for this engine, and round to the nearest tenth of a percent
